For starters I'm a 17 year old female and i'm going to Europe in June with my friends for our senior trip.
I'm trying to figure out what i should wear over there. Our trip consists of England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece and then a cruise around the Pompeii island.
I know that i'm going to want to wear comfortable clothes because of all the walking around i'm going to be doing, but do you have any specific ideas of what i should wear?
I just bought a cute sundress and jean jacket from american eagle, but i have no idea what else to buy and what kind of shoes to get either!
Please help!
Thank you! :)

If you have sensitive feet definitely wear tennis shoes. I wore flip flops the whole time I was there, but I was fine. Also make sure to bring a light jacket or sweatshirt and jeans incase it gets a little chilly or rainy. I would try to bring the smallest suitcase possible because you'll have to carry it everywhere and it gets heavy. Bring as many mix and match tops and bottoms you can, it makes your suitcase lighter because you're not carrying as many outfits around.

I don't know where in Italy you'll be, but if you're going to Rome (which I'm going to assume that you are, since it's Tourist Central), pack a lot of very comfortable clothes that you can wear in extremely hot weather. You will do a lot of walking there because the Roman Metro only consists of two train lines: the A and the B. Sunblock is a must.
(Also, if you're in Rome, see if you can check out the Santa Maria della Concezione church. It's decorated with BONES. Extremely creepy shit.)
If you're going to Venice...also bring the above. Both Venice and Pompeii's temperatures stay around the 80s in the summer, I believe. But it does get pretty hot. Also, in Venice, the only method of transportation is a) boats. or the boat bus. and b) your feet.
Italy's the only country I've been to on your list, so that's about all the advice I can give you. But you should bring at least one sweater + t-shirt + pair of jeans just in case it gets cold. (And it probably WILL be cold on the plane / the airport.)
